I used to live there, and I can confirm that this true.

When you read this poll it really makes you wonder how they are getting away with all this. In fact how they even win an election.
Corruption, pure and simple.
What comes after they remove your ability to fight back? All sorts of things.

What’s entertaining, if you read anything written by the other side (I like to read things not related to gun control from the other side, allows me to remain more open-minded/less emotional)… is they wonder the same thing about the GOP and conservatives.
My guess is that many or even most people who we consider liberal on the ‘Top Ten Liberal States’ list do not consider themselves to be liberal. Remember that the GOP in most of those top ten liberal states is further to the left than most Democrats in at least North Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho. North Dakota, for instance, fairly reliably sends Democrats to DC, despite being tied for third ‘most conservative’.
Vermont and Oregon are interesting on that list because of how libertarian they are. I may not be such a special flower after all. :sarcastic:
Ultimately, you have to be careful about drawing conclusions from this poll and polls like it: It is based on self-identification, not on a comprehensive “how do you feel about the economy/government/guns/abortion/&c.” basis.
VERY shocked to see MD isn’t in the top 10, don’t understand the criteria:
Both MD US Senators are D’s
Both state houses are majority (large) D’s
Gov D
The poll was asking correspondents how they identified: As conservatives, liberals, or moderates.
So less than 27.7% of Marylanders self-identify as liberals. Maryland is listed as having one of the highest numbers of self-identified moderates, in fact.
I agree with what you said. People in more restrictive states do not want to leave the place where they were born and raised and rightfully so.
If you leave your home, the liberals win by using the divide and conquer stategy. Don’t move. Stand and fight!
WOW, that is just amazing, election after election the majority votes for the progressive! Of course there are rare elections: in the states history only 6 or 7 Republicans elected to Gov and ONLY one ever re-elected. Something just doesn’t smell right with the poll.
As stated in another thread: with a child with special needs, I am anchored to University Maryland Medical Center (UMMC), therefore in the near future, the state will make me a felon. So be it.

Don’t think of it like Japs of WWII. Think of it like the Brits in North Africa. You can stay and fight but you will die trying or be captured.
If you fall back and fight with the group, you have a chance.
I am also a fan of cutting off the police and Gov. from support in those areas. If normal people can not have it, neither do the cops or the military. But then I am not someone supplying them… I am sure there are people in the gun community who will decide to supply them to make a buck.
Other than having to read something that poll is about as useful as a hole in the head. It’s asking people of their self evaluation. Im sure if you asked Hitler is he saw himself as a tyrant or extremist he would have said no. Same for Stalin. Very few people have the intellectual capacity and honesty to judge themselves and their actions fairly. As such you’re not going to get a lot of people admitting that they are extremists.
Basically the poll is typical useless media drivel.
Stay and fight, bug out and regroup. It’s an individual decision and either side of then coin needs to be respected. Just realize that if you stay behind enemy lines you will NOT have support and may eventually have to become a closet gun owner who works on getting laws changed from behind a facade.
